Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, & Pacific Islanders (AANHPI) make up less than 3% of teachers, but they make an outsized impact – especially for AANHPI students who see themselves reflected in their educators.

Consider using a learning goals ladder to put the learning goals in order of complexity.

The process of “ordering” learning goals illustrates how the parts work together, which can help students understand and achieve standards. https://t.co/Mlzudc3RSd

Saw this during my classroom walkthroughs today. Would be so cool if students saw this before entering every classroom in every school. Now that is what I call a Culturized classroom. #Culturize
Even better - every building should have it for very staff member as well.

So true! 🙌

You likely have newcomer students in your class or school, but are all newcomers the same? (Spoiler alert: NO!) @AngelicShorn provides practical ideas to build your understanding of how best to offer support to these students: https://t.co/DVmUIVguVS

Implementing small strategies can make a big difference when working with multilingual learners. This post from @instructup shares several approaches to teaching multilingual students to read. Some will even benefit all students.

A student’s English proficiency does not limit what they can do or what they can achieve.

Teachers of multilingual learners have big ♥️hEarTs.
💜They are curious about home languages and know how valuable all languages are.
💙They engage MLs by creating instruction that allows them to fully participate.
💛They create affirming environments where MLs feel comfortable and confident.
💚They build and sustain relationships with MLs and between MLs and peers.
🧡They know how important think time is for MLs so they patiently provide it.

I love multilingual learners, their families, and educators!

Sentence patterning charts are similar to sentence frames, but offer students more choice and explicitly teach common sentence patterns. | https://t.co/rVCBYaQTWr
